I started this blog to provide a casual, recreational level of fantasy NASCAR advice and discussion.  I've been playing these contests for a number of years and am annoyed by lineup sellers and groups of players using the same lineup.  I'm hoping to give the casual player some help in building solid lineups that can beat that annoying crowd most of the time.  I'm not a "tout" and don't do this for a living, so proceed accordingly.  I hope you enjoy the discussion here and Good Luck!

  • No surprise, but I really like Harvick and Truex. I'd have a real hard time fading Harvick on the pole with the #1 pit stall. He's just so good when he's out front. As for Truex, he seems to be best at evening/night racing and the 1.5 mile tracks are a strength. 
  • Byron, Stenhouse and Newman are the obvious position difference plays and should all be heavily owned. There are reasonable scenarios where all hit their value but they each come with different risks. Newman concerns me the most because that car just hasn't had near enough speed lately. If we see a number of long green flag runs, he could easily fall a lap down and never get much chance to move up. Stenhouse is always a crash risk, but he also has Top 10 potential. Byron is probably the best overall play, but he's also really expensive. I'd probably rank them Byron, Stenhouse, Newman but then salary is the issue.
  • Speaking of salary -- Not a lot of great cheap plays. LaJoie has actually been decent at the 1.5 mile tracks, but you never know about reliability. I actually don't think it's crazy to use Brennan Poole at minimum salary. He should finish around 30th and get you 20 points if no issues. It's just really hard to envision any of the sub-$6k guys gaining spots. So maybe the best course is to just save as much as you can down here or avoid it entirely.
  • I think Reddick and Custer will be solid and might gain a few spots.
  • I am very hesitant on Christopher Bell. Upside since he starts 26th, but I don't know what kind of resources are still around and where their heads are at since this team is folding at the end of the season.
